BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from attendees.

ActionCamp builds off of this idea. ActionCamp is about putting a really smart people with diverse backgrounds in the same room, providing information about the important local causes and charities, letting them brainstorm about how to make a difference, and then putting those ideas into ACTION.

We will encourage groups to film and photograph the journey of implementing their action. 

Impromptu Studio will serve as a "home base" for people to work from for the weekend.
